Cannabis worth £1m found at Morecambe property | News

Electricity in the property had also been bypassed

On Tuesday 23rd April 2024, officers from Morecambe’s Neighbourhood Policing Team and Urban Task Force executed a warrant on Euston Road in Morecambe.

Upon entering the property, officers found a cannabis grow located across four floors. The grow is estimated to be worth £1 million.

Electricity in the property had been bypassed, so Electricity North West attended to make the area safe before officers began to dismantle the grow.

PC Katie Foster said: “I would like to reassure the public that enquiries are ongoing and we are dedicated to tackling drugs in our community.

“If anyone has any information in relation to drugs, or drug dealing, in their area then they can report this either via our website, calling 101, or contacting Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
